Uncle,

Re: "rambus performance"

I guess it is becoming clearer to me that current Rambus chips will be competing with ONE arm tied behind their backs. Apparently power consumtion is so high that chips will not be in an active mode all the time.

Now power consumption goes down as we move from 0.25 to 0.18 and then to 0.15.

Does that mean that in a few years is when Rambus memories can operate at their full potential when power ia cut by 50% by moving down the technology curve.

It seems to me that OEMs refused to go along with the Rambus wind tunnels that could have cooled the chips effectively.

Is my understanding correct on this or am i in left field here.

regards,

Kash.
